Thank you for joining us and supporting The Telling Room at Show & Tell this year!

Show & Tell 2023 featured authors and musicians from Maine and beyond who shared their stories alongside The Telling Room’s young writers. Show & Tell 2023 was hosted by Mo Awale, DJed by Mosart212, and featured storytelling by Weike Wang, Lynn Steger Strong, a musical guest appearance by Olas, and writing by Telling Room Students & Alumni — all produced and directed by Sean Mewshaw.


We hope you enjoyed the show, and wanted to share these highlights from the event, captured by photographer Dave Dostie. We invite you to share these images and keep the celebration of the power of youth voices going!
